I'm so excited that Bakersfield FINALLY got another fried fish spot! This place is not in the best neighborhood but please don't let that deter you. It's pretty small inside so it won't be great for large groups but the employees are friendly. The guy that gave me my order informed me that this place is originally from Louisiana and this store is the only one in California! I ordered the 4 piece fish combo and chose the fried okra and red beans and rice for my sides. I also added the fried green tomatoes to my order. I'm not a fan of catfish but this was good. The seasoning on their food is SEASONING, okay?!!!! The fried green tomatoes are delicious without any sauce but when you dip it in their homemade tartar sauce and hot sauce it's amazing! I'm not sure what kind of roll it is that comes with their meals but Hot Damn it's bomb! It's like a soft pillow, almost like a beignet but not as airy. I didn't eat my food for about 40 minutes or so and the roll was still so soft! I will definitely hit this place up again and give the fried chicken and fried shrimp a try! If you've been looking for a place with fried fish, look no more! It's called Chick O Fish and it's in Bakersfield via Louisiana! read more

This place just opened up yesterday. It was their second day. They have chicken, fish, and shrimp. Everything I had on the combo plate was breaded. I got a side of fries, cole slaw, and a freshly baked bun. The owner told me this was a franchise. They were from Louisiana and were looking for opportunities in Bakersfield. As with any new business, it is going to take a few days to get the place up and running. You can eat inside. The tables and chairs looked comfy, but I opted to take out. The walls are a little sparse, but I'm certain they will dress the place up nicely. The owner was very nice and you could tell he had a passion for this business. I look forward to seeing them very successful. read more

If you enjoy fried food, this place is ideal for you. I am not a fan of fried food, never was, but I love seafood so I thought I'd see what was available. The menu is pretty limited and generic. I ordered the three shrimp and three fish strips combo with fries and fried okra. The shrimp was rock shrimp, which I am not a fan of, but the batter was light, delicious and well-seasoned. The fish? I was not able to tell if I was eating tilapia (which I am not a fan of) or catfish. It was quite salty and over fried. When I went in, the place was packed. Ordering is not difficult and the staff is very nice. The packaging is clean. The eatery is more designed to be a to-go place but there are a few tables and chairs for dining in. The accompanying sauces are mediocre. read more

Chick O'Fish - Fish & chicken combo. BOMB - Seafood Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I first heard about this new spot on Yelp. After reading several reviews--especially one from a fellow former Southerner who said it was as close to home as you could get--I was instantly intrigued and decided to check it out. Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted and given a brief history lesson about the franchise, which primarily originates from Louisiana. Every question I had about the menu was answered promptly and thoroughly. I later realized that the friendly, enthusiastic gentleman taking my order was the owner himself, Omar. Prices are more than reasonable. I was informed that a few menu items will be added over the next few weeks, so just keep in mind that this is a new business still getting fully up and running. While I waited, I was offered water, and in less than 15 minutes, my order was ready. The staff even kindly helped me carry everything out to my car. Once I got home, my family was pleasantly surprised--and definitely not disappointed. The entire experience brought back memories of home in the South. The food was piping hot, well-prepared, not overly seasoned, and appropriately portioned. My personal favorites were the okra, catfish, and the buns--they were delicious! I wasn't particularly impressed with the condiments, but my daughter absolutely loved their house sauce. Overall, a great experience. I'm hoping--and praying--for much success for this business! read more

Chick O'Fish - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Lured in by the newness and stars. The cashier was nice. I think he might have been the owner. I order the 3 fish and 3 shrimp plate. It doesn't come with a drink tho. The fish and shrimp were decent size. I really liked the crispness of the fries. Then there was this bread. I asked for butter and he gave me melted butter. But you know what, you don't need the butter. I got all the sauces. Honest, nothing special about the sauces. The starter isn't your typical white tarter sauce. It had spices but not relish. Their "chicken sauce" was a play on the ketchup with mayo but add seasonings. The guys kept talking about Sam's so idk if he is buying his stuff from Sam's Club. I was confused. Anyways, the fish was well seasoned and breaded. The shrimp is on the large size. Batter had nothing special on it. The coleslaw slaw...just pass and get something else because it had no flavor and was runny mayo. Overall, I could come back for the fish, fries and that bread! read more

I'm sure that Chik0Fish on White Lane is delicious. However, I have never eaten there. We just got one opened in Taft on Kern Street. I was the first customer so Omar gave me that meal at no cost. The food was delicious. Catfish, shrimp, hush puppies, okra and a bread roll that was delicious. Give it a try Taft, you will love it. read more

Chick O'Fish - Washington DC, Veterans honor flight, Kern county. October 2025. (blessed) - Seafood Near Me - Bakersfield, California

The food is excellent. It was plenty to share. We tried the fish, chicken tenders, and shrimp. They make their own dinner rolls. Everything was delicious. There is no ambiance, it's just a few tables with chairs, but the food makes up for that. Because of where it's located I feel they need to advertise more so people know about this restaurant. It's tucked behind other businesses so it's easy to overlook it. Overall we enjoyed our lunch and plan to return. read more

Awesome. We always get a shrimp po boy. Gonna try the chicken next time. The French fries are always fresh, which I love.

The food is great! I love the rolls, they're light and fluffy. Staff were friendly and quick while preparing the food. It's a chill small spot great for lunch and dinner. read more

Ok, where do I start? Amazing, amazing, amazing... the customer was a 10; he was patient and kind. This is a new place, so I wasn't sure what I should try, and there was no rush.

The star of the show are the fried biscuits. read more

Delicious soul food! My soul is happppyyyy! My order: 3 shrimp-they were huge and fluffy delicious 3 fish - good size pieces Fried okra-always a favorite of mine and these didn't disappoint Hush puppies-yummmm. Delicious and seasoned so perfectly Red rice and beans-he told me that I have to try these! Ohhhh, I could have eaten a bowl of this with some hush puppies. Like a huge bowl...it was so well seasoned The kicker was a dinner roll...it was so good that it was practically dessert. I'm assuming that these are homemade??? It was the best dinner roll I've ever had. It's hard to describe, but it almost seemed like a biscuit/roll combo with delicious 360 degrees of perfection. Just amazing!! The gentleman/owner? was telling me that they have 100+ stores in Louisiana and this is their first in California. I hope you give it a try, because I think you'll love it. I'm going to try these chicken when I go back next. I will always get the red beans and rice, fried okra, and hush puppies for sure. These were definitely my favorites here! read more

This place has good fish. It was crispy and seasoned in the right ways. I def will be back to try other items on the menu.

Finally... Fried fish in Bakersfield that taste fire. Food is fresh and hot. We got the fish and chicken plate with fries and hush puppies. Fish fire, chicken fire (better than canes), hush puppies fire, fries fire. Last but not least the roll (which I wasn't going to eat or try until I touched it and it felt deep fried...fire, it tastes like a beignet without the sugar. Overall 9 out of 10 will try again. They also have whole wings which I didn't try but will next time. Worth the try. Priced well too! read more

absolutely loved the energy when i walked in. I was greeted immediately and the cashier was super awesome. The food is absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection!!!! im originally from alabama and finding good southern flavors here is so rare, but as soon as i took a bite of the fish i instantly fell in love!!! definitely reminds me of back home, i hope chick o fish will be here for a while! read more

The service was great I called in a order for fried green tomatoes and two pieces of fish and the cashier added more salt and I left and tasted it it was to salty I couldn't eat it and the fried tomatoes was so thinly sliced but they gave a lot I don't think I will be going back to visit the restaurant anytime soon read more

Me and my wife went there last night for dinner and it was absolutely amazing. The catfish is some of the best I've ever had. Mama's house better watch out. We had shrimp chicken strips absolutely delicious. The coleslaw was delicious. The fried green tomatoes, hush puppies, and fried okra were all so good. This is definitely going to be somewhere we go a couple times a month. The pricing is very reasonable and the location is nice. They are still in the process of getting everything decorated inside. There's definitely a good amount of seating, clean atmosphere and friendly service. Bakersfield definitely needed a place like this. There's definitely something for everyone on this menu. read more

Chick O'Fish - Catfish crabcakes shrimp chicken strips, french fries sauces fried bread - Seafood Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I got the 3 piece fish and chicken fingers. My wife got the 3 piece fish and shrimp. The fish was good sized and tasted ok i asked my wife to get all the sauces which i think she did. Problems with the sauce cups were they were all between 1/2 to 1/3 full. Also i could not tell if there was tarter sauce it tasted like ranch. We got something that looked like cocktail sauce, one hot sauce and two sauces that looked and tasted like a chickfilet type sauce, two white ranch or tarter. The chicken strips were very good they were perfectly breaded and the seasoning was good. they were also juicy and on the larger side for chicken fingers. Wife said the shrimp were large and tasted good also. for the sides we got fries that were generous and good, red beans and rice which was fairly bland, hush puppies my wife said they were ok and the coleslaw which i likes because it had a lot of sauce and it was not dry. we also each got a roll but neither of us tried it. The price was fairly good at 17 per plate. I would have given a higher mark if they filled up the sauce cups. Also, no lemon for the fish. read more

I feel bad for people who live in Bakersfield. They have to go through trying to get food from these places. This is like a second rate town how are you? Gonna be a business and your card reader doesn't read Apple Pay chip or swipe this is embarrassing. I would not suggest coming unfortunately if you want some good fried fish come on down to Los Angeles come to Broadway and imperial fish market. You'll get you some better fish. read more

My nephew from Georgia called me about this spot when it first opened, wasn't even on Yelp yet, he was pretty excited. Said this is the closest and best fried fish outside of Georgia and he's serious about his fish fry. I had all, fish, chicken and shrimp I never had fried fish in Georgia but I've had my nephews (delicious) this was no different (also delicious) hush puppies were the best I've had. I can't wait till they get up to full speed as far as items like red beans and rice, chicken wings. This food is definitely top notch! And it definitely gonna just get better! read more

We tried everything on the menu and loved every bit. The wings both sauced and unsauced were cooked perfectly. The shrimp was delicious, breading was crispy and not overly breaded. The catfish was a standout and highly recommended. The only downside is we were just passing through and don't live near Bakersfield. read more

First of all... fantastic customer service despite it being busy! Ordered fish and shrimp with okra and fries and was not disappointed! Absolutely delicious read more

Today I went to the new Chick O' Fish for lunch. It is a brand new establishment that's only been open to 2 weeks. I tried several items on the menu to see how things tasted. I had the deep fried shrimp, the Chicken strips and one fish fillet. Everything is fresh and cooked to order. For the sides I tried the hush puppies and french fries. Everything was fresh and delicious. Bakersfield needs a place for fish and chips, hopefully people will give this place a try. Service was outstanding. Highly recommend. read more

Absolute 5 Star rating! My family is hooked on this place!! Hands down some of the best and most fresh fish you can get in Bako, and their chicken is good. They dont have their full menu yet, but what they have is phenomenal. I came a couple days after opening and have already came back, definitely a staple for my family when we feel like eating out now. Not to mention the owner is such a personable guy, already remembers my family and has a real passion for food. Couldn't say better about this place, it's def worth a try! read more

This place - wow! The chicken, fish, shrimp, fries - everything was so incredibly delicious! The staff were also super kind, so when they didn't have red beans & rice, they gave us a complimentary chicken strip and shrimp. Definitely going back to this place again! read more
